is there really 1.75 inch height difference between tony curtis (you have listed at 5ft 8.75 in) and jerry lewis (listed 5 ft 10.5 in) check out this photo of the two stars, pictured together at their peaks in 1950s:

Solid 5' 11" in the 1950's, his spine has compressed, lots of surgery. 5' 8" now.

I would say 5'10-5'11, 6'0 is pushing too far-nowadays he is more like 5'7-5'8

I meet Jerry at a charity event in 1990 (New York city) and got my picture taken with him, I even asked him what height he was, he replied 5ft 11 inchs in my younger days but now barely 5ft 9in!, I am exactly 5ft 8.5ins and he was a fraction taller than me. PRETTY SOLID EVIDENCE

here are jerry and dean with rocky marciano, who is usually listed at 1.79m. they both appear to be taller than rocky and on the 1956 newsreel footage jerry is certainly is taller when they shake hands at start.

in this 1960s show with andy williams, jerry and andy stand close together for over 5 minutes; Click Here
jerry looks at least 10cm taller than the 1.69m andy williams... and williams' shoe heels look about 1cm higher than jerrys.

5'10.5? Haha, you REALLY need to take off about two inches.

Russ, Jerry has had many issues with his back after years of pratfalls and physical stunts, and has had surgeries and such. I'm sure he has lost a good deal of height due to this, plus old age.

If he was 5'10, how come he is now level with '5ft 6 and a half' Dustin Hoffman??! Nobody shrinks 4 inches! He was probably 5'8 max in his youth.

Looks the same height as Dean Martin. Solid 5'10".

I saw Jerry in person a while back. At 84 he is at least 4" shorter than his peak height of just on 5'11". In a 1955 movie with 6'1.5" Raymond Burr, Jerry is barefoot in a scene with Burr, and is no shorter than 5'11". He was certainly taller than Curtis and Martin (without lifts).
